    While many of those detained do not have criminal records, Aprineh is a convicted felon, which makes her a prime target for removal.

    Oh dear.

      When she heard they wanted to deport criminal immigrants, she thought she’d receive special treatment.

      She got thrown into a concentration camp just like the “good jews” who supported Hitler

    She had a rough patch many years ago, in 2008, when she was convicted of burglary and grand theft and was sentenced to two years in prison. An immigration judge revoked her Green Card, which is a common practice. But because she is a Christian Armenian Iranian, the judge allowed her to remain in the country instead of being deported.

    In other words…she is exactly the kind of person that “doesn’t deserve to be here”, as she stated about other people. She’s literally a convicted criminal. This is exactly what she “would have” voted for, if she was legally allowed to vote.

    I have zero sympathy for this degree of stupid. Everything she’s going through is self-inflicted.

    Yet her family says they have faith that Arpineh will be released, and believe that only hardened, dangerous criminals will actually be deported.

    “I know he’s eating my face as we speak, and I know he says it’s super delicious, but I am certain that he doesn’t mean that, and really only intends to eat the faces of other people that I don’t like.”

    “I don’t blame Trump, I blame Biden,” Arthur says. “It’s his doing for open borders, but I believe in the system and all the good people will be released and the ones that are bad will be sent back.”

    I also believe that Santa Claus will soon ride up on a camo unicorn and deliver me numerous bags of money with large dollar signs printed on them. I also believe that trans fats are actually good for me, and my obesity is a sign of good health.

    🙄

    The kids with the Trump cult gear just makes me so hopelessly sad. Kids don’t want to wear that shit, they want to play and grow and learn and have fun with their friends. They brainwash their children and force feed them propaganda to indoctrinate them from birth. It’s the only way you can convince someone that right wing politicians care about you.

    Arthur says he doesn’t know details of the burglary. They spoke briefly about it before they were married and then he forgot about what he considered a youthful indiscretion by his wife.

    She was 21 and got two years.

    So, the article says that she was a dangerous felon, taking property from good Americans. Sounds like she fits her own bill of who should be deported.

    These are Cipolla’s five fundamental laws of stupidity:

    1. Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.

    2. The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.

    3. A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.

    1. Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.

    2. A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

    I can’t even quote even one fucking example of their pure bedshitting derangement, because I’d just have to quote the entire goddamn article.

    Holy fuck.
